Currently, I cannot qualify for a home due to being a realtor (Banks need to see 2 years of tax returns to lend to me... One year to go!) I didn't let that stop me from landing a good deal. My parents are rental property investors and after sharing/convincing them this was an incredible deal we partnered together (even though they say to stay away from family). We are currently renting the home for $920/mo to a young couple and have had little to no issues... If only they were all this easy!
What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
Many of the homes I have found for myself or other investors need a major amount of work to make the number look great. This was a unicorn that for some reason nobody saw or was interested in. I took a slight risk, and it paid off greatly!
How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
By the time I had gotten approved to put an offer on the home it went pending. I told the listing agent to contact me if it fell through and fortunately, it did!
How did you finance this deal?
Through Centier Bank with Chris France. Conventional 20% down loan and it qualified for a neighborhood loan. Our interest rate was an amazing 4.25%
How did you add value to the deal?
This home honestly should've sold for 70-85k. The listing agent needed money quick!
